'Cause my arms would die without your hands to live
And your arms will lie parallel to his
And I won't be fooled as long as I don't hear
That you have been whispering
Sweet nothings in his earAnd one of these days he'll screw up
And oh, you'll question the love
And I will be waiting there for you
To wander back
'Cause you deserve more than that
'Cause you deserve more than thatYou'll pardon his thinking
All the fights he dragged you through
And I learned of his shortcomings
When I got to lie with youThe ways that we differ
And ways you can begin
To bring back the green in your eyes
The sadness from your skinAnd one of these days you'll grow up
And oh, you'll question a love
That never fulfilled you from the start
It won't take long to mend a broken heart
Deserves more than that
'Cause it deserves more than thatYou'll wait for a break
Then the morning comes
And it feels like a burning
Burning touch of the sun
It feels like broken glass
The shot of a gunAnd one of these days he'll screw up
And oh, you'll question the love
And I will be waiting there for you
To wander backAnd one of these days you'll grow up
And oh, you'll question a love
It never fulfilled you from the start
It won't take long to mend a broken heart'Cause you deserve more than that
You deserve more than that
You deserve more than that
